GUCCI eyes

one of my favorite colors in all the world is turquoise....it reminds me of swimming pools and the color of the sky in cowboy paintings....

and as i was flipping throught the July ELLE....that has my favorite Gwennie Stefani on the cover.....I came across this gorgeous look from the GUCCI show...it is not your everyday look but I love it....

I used the YABY palette for all the colors...

you can also use MAC colors...TILT, ELECTRIC EEL and MELODY...any turquoise, sea foam green, and royal blues....

my hair actually turned out this color by accident, on a 4th of July many years ago....ha ha ha ha...on my way to the Warped Tour concert...I tried to bleach my hair and then tone it, and the toner turned my hair green and blue.... 

but here's some color for your eyes....and not your hair..ha ha ha ha

have the sparkliest 4th of JULY!!!!

ps, I got the new line of MAC make-up launching sunday....i'm gonna show your early yay!!!!
